Comprehensive Plan

Our Mission

Nurture and Challenge for Success.

As per the Chapter 4 regulations established by the PA Department of Education, school districts are to develop and submit a Comprehensive Plan every six years. Part One of the Plan covered the first three years of the six-year requirement (2017-2021) - with a one year extension due to the pandemic. The Manheim Township School District facilitated Part Two of the strategic planning process during the 2021-2022 school year, in preparation for its implementation during the 2022-2023 school year. The new Plan is written through the 2024-2025 school year.

The 2022-2025 Comprehensive Plan was adopted by the Board of School Directors on August 18, 2022. The Plan meets the requirements of the following statutes:

  • Chapter 4 (Academic Standards & Assessment)
  • Chapter 12 (Student Services)
  • Chapter 16 (Gifted Education)
  • Chapter 49 (Teacher Certification, Induction, Professional Development)

Summary of Plan

To create a welcoming and supportive environment where all students, staff, and families feel a sense of belonging.

Comprehensive Plan
Goal #1

The district will implement data review protocols K-12 that drive continuous improvement as determined by district and building level data, as well as student outcome data, to be measured by various state and local assessments and metrics (STAR, PVAAS, state level assessments, local assessments and screenings, local quarterly performance data, graduation rate).

Comprehensive Plan
Goal #2

The district will develop a comprehensive resource for students, families and staff in need of assistance/guidance/support to address academic and mental health needs, with the effectiveness to be measured by pre- and post-surveys, mental health screenings, universal screening tool, and fidelity evaluation rubrics (the rubric rates/features the frequency of the possible Pupil Services Team outcomes), and updated website postings and data analytics.

Comprehensive Plan
Goal #3

The district will facilitate school-wide powerful learning*, personal growth, and leadership opportunities for key stakeholder groups (teachers, students, community) that develop lifelong learners and prepare students for effective college and career readiness, as measured by surveys, student career portfolio checklists, anecdotal feedback from mentorship, leadership, and parent training programs.
